The two-time GCAA All-America Scholar from George, South Africa, has volunteered in multiple Michael Isenhour Toy Drives with Georgia Tech Athletics, where over 2,000 toys and $8,000 donated on average assist with providing Christmas gifts for children in downtown Atlanta shelters. During the six weeks he was home in South Africa for spring break last year, Lamprecht assisted his mother with planning and preparing all spring activities, including academic, athletic, and social functions, for his high school. 

“This award, which I view as the most prestigious, is one I really wanted to win because it means more than just hitting a golf ball,” continued Lamprecht. It is so easy with social media and everything else in the modern day to just look at results, where people define you based on what your results are, but to me, the Byron Nelson Award is more defining of the person that you are and the way you carry yourself.” 

Lamprecht, along with assisting the athletic department’s nutrition staff stock, prepare, and deliver snack bags for road trips across various programs as well as being the Yellow Jackets’ representative in the 2023 East Lake Cup Junior Clinic, has been the top-ranked men’s amateur golfer in the world over numerous weeks.

He got to the top by becoming The Amateur champion, the low amateur at The Open, competing in The Masters, a PING first-team All-America selection, an ACC Excellence Award recipient, and a competitor in both the Arnold Palmer Cup (his second straight appearance) and World Team Amateur Championship, to name a few. On April 17, Lamprecht was named one of 10 semifinalists for the 2024 Ben Hogan Award presented by PNC Bank for the second straight year.

“Receiving the Byron Nelson Award is the highlight of my college career in terms of the awards and accolades that I have achieved,” Lamprecht said. “It is something that I will hold dear to my heart for the rest of my life.”
